I have a 96 gsx and I'm wondering if the car has a clearcoat. Also, the car was never in an accident. Thanks

Unless someone repainted it with acrylic, I would bet it is base coat/ clear coat

Yeah, my 1G was built in 89 and it had base/clear. The only thing on DSM's that I have found to be single stage paint is the black tops on 1G's.
